The presence of Jesus “in the flesh” is most evident in the faces of men and women who have no place to lay their heads. In serving and loving them, we can serve and love him.
St. Mary parishioners work together with other local churches to provide dinner and lunches for the Safe Nights program serving our homeless brothers and sisters.
“Safe Nights” is a united and compassionate response that provides overnight shelter to individuals and families from October 1st – April 21st of each year. The program rotates to a different host site each week, providing dinner and breakfast from 7pm to 7am each day. Staff and volunteers are available on-site to provide supervision and coordination of services. Participants are provided with everything that they need for their stay, including cots, linens, and toiletry items. Supportive services and enrichment activities are conducted nightly to encourage participants in their journey towards self-sufficiency.
